Miami is still going to Run The Damn Ball

Cam Ward sent shockwaves across the ACC when he announced his commitment to Miami. The proven quarterback is teaming up with a wide receiver room that is experienced. surely Shannon Dawson is going to fire up those Air Raid sirens and throw the ball all over the yard, but people are forgetting about this man Damien Martinez which is going to light up defences all over the country

So what’s it going to be? Will Miami still move the ball four yards in a cloud of dust, or drop bombs deep downfield through air? Why not both? Mario Cristobal wants to have his cake and eat it too.

Miami brought in new running back coach Matt Merritt which USF ran for 182.8 yards per game (2,377 total yards) to rank third in the American Athletic Conference and posted 5,871 total yards (451.6 per game), the third-best mark in program history, in 2023. 

Miami is not abandoning its physical identity in the run game. They’re simply going to adapt with the times by adjusting to the strengths of the offense’s personnel.

Miami has returned Mark Fletcher, Ajay Allen, and Christopher Johnson, Miami is also bringing in Jordan Lyle and Chris Humphrey from the 2024 class.

All of these kids are top dawgs and will make a huge impact in the Miami Hurricanes offence next season.

Mark Fletcher and Ajay Allen along with Damien Martinez all bring college experience to the table.

The Hurricanes have struggled to maintain a healthy running back room in each of the last two years but with Miami adding Martinez say if he does go down Miami will have some experienced backs to back him up.

Mark fletcher is hurt right now with a lower body injury but you can expect him to at least be back for the Hurricanes season or we hope.

the freshman Jordan Lyle and Chris Weathly-Humphry will bring in much depth ton the room and complete for a 3-4 spot on the team.
